[Monotone-devel] monotone ls unknown

[Peter Simons]

Hi,

I have just installed the very latest version of monotone,
in the hope that listing unknown / ignored files might work
now. Alas, it does not:

    $ monotone update
    [...]
    $ monotone status
    Old manifest: 4336b2fb2406e32d5dcd623e4015b711d73dcd0b
    New manifest: 4336b2fb2406e32d5dcd623e4015b711d73dcd0b
    Summary of changes:
      no changes

    $ echo "stuff" >foobar
    $ monotone  --norc --verbose ls unknown
    monotone: executing ls command
    monotone: executing list command
    monotone: manifest path is MT/manifest
    monotone: loading manifest file MT/manifest
    monotone: read 356 manifest entries
    monotone: work path is MT/work
    monotone: no un-committed work file MT/work

    $ echo "stuff" >ignored.o
    $ monotone  --norc --verbose ls ignored
    monotone: executing ls command
    monotone: executing list command

Everything else works fine, it's just those 'ls' commands
that don't seem to do anything. Any idea what might cause
this, anybody?

P. S.: Graydon, in monotone's own repository, should
"config.h.in" really be a file that is tracked by monotone?
Since the file is (re-)generated by the automake tool suite,
it changes every time automake is run, and monotone wants to
record those changes every time.
